Solid Foods!

Katerina had her first taste of solid food today--applesauce! Mike and I were so excited to start.



We decided to start with applesauce because the rice cereal can make babies constipated--and Katerina already has that problem sometimes. So we started with applesauce--high in fiber!



It was amusing watching her take the applesauce in her mouth, then push it out with her tongue. I think she probably got about a tablespoon or so in her stomach, because most of it ended up on her chin, bib and hand. At one point it was all over her hand and then she rubbed her eyes and got it all over her face--she's going to get a bath tonight! :)



The adventure only lasted about 5 minutes--after that she started to get fussy. So we put it back on the floor to play and 15 minutes later she pooped...was that the applesauce??



We'll try again tomorrow and see how she does. Check out Katerina's blog later today because she will be sharing her video of the experience.
